Help Save My Prelude!

Post by jjmartin349571 » Wed Feb 20, 2013 5:59 pm

Hi Folks,

As per the title - I'm hoping you can help me get hold of the parts I need to prevent my Prelude rotting away on my Dad's driveway, as it's breaking my heart!

So, the bits I desperately need:

Rear O/S brake caliper. There's one locally for £30 plus postage but I'm hoping somebody here might be able to do better? :D

O/S handbrake cable - killed mine during a bout of impatience :(

N/S JDM black headlight cluster - for some reason my dip beam bulb isn't held in by anything :?

And the bits I'm in no rush for, but will buy if you offer me a price I can't refuse :)

Exhaust manifold and downpipe

Rear silencer (loud please :D )

Radiator

2x part worn 215/40 17R tyres - I have Dunlop Sportmaxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (can't remember how many x's :? ) on currently, so something of similar spec. Looking for under £20 a corner as my local place had some for £25 the other week. Not too worried about tread depth, they're going on the rear so as low as 3mm will be fine for me.

So that's about all I think, the top 3 are most urgent though and I probably won't be after the remaining bits until after the MOT is on the car. Just for anyone who doesn't know, my car is a '92 BB4 with a H22A lump.

Cheers,
Josh

You can have my great condition radiator for postage if you like? Tried to sell for as little as £10 and no takers.

Let me know. :D

Also have the rear caliper, just need to remove it. 8-)

That'd be awesome Rob, mine's literally disintegrated!! Definitely interested in the caliper too :) do you want to drop me a PM with details?

Dbo, how much are you after for the lights mate? I know the JDM clusters are eye wateringly expensive, I can only imagine projectors cost more :scaredtoss: are they halogen projectors or are they meant for HID's?

Newkid, how much would you be looking for the back box? Tbh mine is fine just a bit rusty - but I'm thinking as I've got the chance I may as well swap it out, especially as the mid section was done recently so the bolts on the flange are still easily removed!

Cheers guys :)

I might have some jam headlights for sale if I can find a lens for my smashed halo headlight. ;)
